Itamar Apelblat, CEO of Token Security, joins Mr. NHI at the Non-Human & AI Identity podcast, where he is put in the hot seat as Mr. NHI fires 10 machine speed questions on identity management and security, including Non-Human Identities (NHIs) and the intersection with Agentic AI Agents.
Listen to how Itamar responded to the questions below:
Are CISOs ready for fleets of autonomous digital employees?
Itamar explores whether today’s security leadership is prepared for managing large-scale AI agent identities with autonomy and privilege.
Is IAM for AI more important than AI for IAM?
The discussion positions identity as the control layer for AI systems, rather than something to optimize with AI.
Are AI agents being deployed without security guardrails in production?
Itamar highlights the growing gap between rapid AI adoption and the maturity of security controls.
Are the current identity standards fit for autonomous systems?
A critical look at whether existing IAM frameworks can support non-human, autonomous actors.
Does Agentic AI security equal NHI security?
Itamar explains where the overlap exists and where treating them as identical can introduce risk.
Do AI agents behave more like employees or software?
The conversation challenges traditional identity models, as AI agents begin to operate with human-like autonomy.
Will static, long-lived credentials and secrets still exist in five years?
Itamar examines whether legacy authentication models can survive in an AI-driven environment.
Will AI agents eventually need proper background checks like humans?
A forward-looking discussion on trust, verification, and governance for autonomous identities.
Will regulators move fast enough to keep up with Agentic AI?
Itamar addresses the growing gap between technological advancement and regulatory response.
Will the AI agent digital workforce lead to mass unemployment?
Separating hype from reality, the conversation focuses on how work may evolve alongside AI agents.
